Alpaca Notes - Tasmania - December 2011

Snap! - Leg's broke.

December 21st 2011 23:54
Alpacas create rolling patches for themselves. They don't have lanolin in their fleece as sheep do, so rolling in the dirt helps weatherproof their fleeces. It works a treat too. You can go out after a downpour and the top few centimetres of their fleece will be sopping wet, but under that they're completely dry.

Anyway, the pacas here made themselves a rolling patch right next to a fence and were milling about there, patiently waiting for their turn and sending up thick clouds of dust as they each rolled about coating their fleeces in dirt
